Re: Fw: PGMREF and non-IBM Commands

[Jim Langston <jimlangston@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

How about considering making this open source instead of freeware?  Basically, 
the only main
difference is you supply the source code for free instead of just the program.  
There is an
opensource movement for the AS/400 being started that currently has one full 
blown package
being worked on, WyattERP, an ERP system.

I am currently in the process of developing a product to build up a picture of 
the BPCS system, ie. programs, files (where used), fields (where used), etc and 
this product is Freeware - yes
Freeware.  This product will work on any AS/400 where programs have been 
developed using RPG II/III/400 and it will include IV/ILE in the near future.  
 
The product will build a picture on the following:

     Libraries - used to drill down to the following: 
     Programs (Parameters, Files used, called programs, other objects, fields 
used (renames w/ threads),/COPY routines, subroutines, called by other programs 
analysis, source code
     and levels). 
     Database Files (Physical files, record formats, fields + references, where 
used, Logical files, access paths, select/omit criteria) 
     Device Files (Display Files, Printer Files - all linked to the database 
and programs lists) 
     Data Areas (where used, external data structures, LDA definitions) 
     Job Descriptions (where used) 
     Commands (non OS/400)

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE INCLUDED IN THE DISTRIBUTION OF THIS TOOL THEN PLEASE 
SEND ME AN E-MAIL DIRECTLY AND NOT THROUGH THE LISTSERV.  MY
E-MAIL ADDRESS IS ian.bunn@progeny400.com
